Are you a weekend warrior or an all-around athlete?

In today’s society sitting has become the norm for both work and most recreation activities. Whether you’re a weekend warrior, an all around athlete or none of the above chances are you suffer from neck and back pain. While sitting all day at work then racing off to a work out or run the body will go into shock. Over time wear and tear will catch up with the body. It’s important to heal the body while not being active with a support system for the pelvis.

I had the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Todd McDougle of McDougle Chiropratic Methods about different conditions that he treats. Dr. McDougle has worked with all categories of patient through his career including, adults, children and geriatrics. As an athlete he has traveled to treat athletes of America. Strength-sports, one of his top category of treatment. Instead of jumping into surgery Dr. McDougle has a few other options outlined in this Q&A.

Back pain affected 9.4 percent of people in 2010, their analysis showed.

What condition were you trying to treat using RelaxoBack?

I like to consider the use of the RelaxoBak a total spine tool. Appropriate posture is something that is quickly disappearing due to the sedentary lifestyles most Americans have today. Postural deformities will be the next major cause of numerous dysfunctions affecting the health of millions in a myriad of ways and will permanently damage the children today when they are adults in the future. My Focus has always been to use the RelaxoBak as a pelvic stabilizer to reduce stress of the S-I Joint and the lower spine. A solid foundation leads to a neutral position of your entire spine and head.

What are the options for treatment?

There are a few options for treatment such as surgery, pharmacology, psychology, and manual therapy. Of course, Chiropractic is one of the more successful methods.

What product or products have you purchased from RelaxoBak?

Primarily the original seat but have also used pretty much all of their product line at one time or another.

Why RelaxoBak VS another company in the industry?

The trustworthiness of this company is the best. I have never been disappointed nor have I ever returned an item. Their product line is just that good!

How did this product help?

For me, the stabilization of the pelvis and low back are instrumental in a productive and positive outcome for my patients. The RelaxoBak allows for an opportunity to create somewhat of a “cast” of stability for the pelvic foundation to do exactly what is needed in between my Chiropractic treatment methods!
